======Kai Qu====== =====Introduction===== Kai Qu is a witch and a professional [[Quidditch]] player of Chinese nationality. She served as a [[Chaser]] for the Chinese National [[Quidditch]] Team during the 2014 [[Quidditch World Cup]]. Her existence and role are detailed in supplementary materials written by [[J.K. Rowling]] (Pottermore). =====Biography===== Kai Qu's only documented appearance in wizarding history is as a key player for the Chinese National [[Quidditch]] Team that competed in the 2014 [[Quidditch World Cup]], which took place in the Patagonian Desert (Pottermore). Playing in the position of [[Chaser]], she was part of a celebrated offensive line alongside fellow [[Chaser]] [[Deng Quon]]. During the first round of the tournament, the Chinese team faced the Nigerian National [[Quidditch]] Team. Despite the Chinese [[Chaser]]s being described as a "marvel" in their performance, the team was ultimately defeated by Nigeria, with a final score of 300 to 100. This loss eliminated China from the tournament (Pottermore). =====Physical Appearance and Personality===== There is no known description of Kai Qu's physical appearance or personality. =====Magical Abilities and Skills===== * **[[Quidditch]] Flying:** As a professional athlete competing at the highest international level, Kai Qu was undoubtedly an exceptionally skilled and agile flyer. * **[[Chaser]] Skills:** Her performance in the 2014 [[Quidditch World Cup]] match against Nigeria, where she and her teammate [[Deng Quon]] were praised for their skill, indicates she possessed excellent control of the [[Quaffle]], superior teamwork, and advanced scoring tactics (Pottermore). =====Possessions===== While no specific possessions are mentioned, as a qualified witch and professional [[Quidditch]] player, Kai Qu would have owned a [[wand]] and a professional-grade [[broomstick]]. =====Relationships===== Kai Qu's only known professional relationship was with her teammate on the Chinese National [[Quidditch]] Team, fellow [[Chaser]] [[Deng Quon]]. No information is available regarding her family, friends, or other associations. =====Etymology===== The name "Kai Qu" has Chinese origins. * **Kai** (凯, kǎi) is a common given name meaning "triumphant," "victorious," or "victory." * **Qu** (曲, qū) is a surname that can mean "bent" or "crooked," but it more commonly refers to a "tune" or "song." When combined, her name could be interpreted as "Song of Victory" or "Triumphant Song," a fitting name for a competitive international athlete. =====Behind the Scenes===== Kai Qu is a character created by [[J.K. Rowling]] specifically for the Pottermore website (now Wizarding World) as part of the expanded universe content. Her story appears in the "History of the Quidditch World Cup" articles and the fictional live-report coverage of the 2014 tournament, written from the perspective of [[Ginny Weasley]] (Potter). She does not appear, nor is she mentioned, in the original seven //Harry Potter// novels or any of the film adaptations.
